Okay. I had this idea for a new Final Fantasy story. I've already posted it under the name 'Crashed' BUT I'm not completely satisfied with the name. Usually I'm horrible with titles for my stories, I mean I wanna gag at some of my first stories-

Kidnapped by a Shadow- Really that just gave away the entire story right there.

Character Encounters- Again. One glance at the title and you know what its about.

The Human Sonic Team- Okay, that was over done so many times. I mean really there are several other stories with the exact same name!

How I met Shadow- Name beat the story to the punch.

A Tale of Hope- *Face palm* I thought I was being creative since her name was Hope and that saying is kinda famous...and overly done. Even though that story is the ONLY one that is about the majorly awesome Hope Kintobor *Speaking of which I have inspiration to update that due to a new comic starring her and her now brother Snively *

And then I just resorted to using the names of the songs I base the story off of. So can anyone help me with a name? I wouldn't mind keeping 'Crashed' because that is the name of the song I'm sorta kinda basing the story off of. Kinda. Sorta. Here's the storyline-

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

*SPOLIER ALERT*

Marlene and Denzel are saved by a mysterious young man after being attacked by some monster. They find out he was the last survivor of Geostigma and they quickly heal him with the healing waters from Aerith's church. Marlene convinces Cloud to let them take in the man until he can get better, but when they ask about his name, he replies that he has none. When pressed further, he submits into saying that he often times goes by his father's name. Angeal Hewley .

The man doesn't know anything about his father, because up until the age of five or so *haven't fully decided* he was living in some type of lab, then escaped living out on his own from that very young age. Now he's a twenty year old young man and had decided to come to Edge/Midgar to find any clues about his parents. All he knows is that Angeal Hewley was a SOLDIER from a town called Banora and his mother's name...Jenova. Cloud recognises the longing in the boy and agrees to help him in whatever way he can and all the while keep an eye on him because of his apparent link to the calamity, which might also allow Sephiroth to take control of him.

The man asks Cloud to take him to Banora. At first Cloud refuses because he knew there was nothing left of the forgotten town, but when the young man says he's pay him because of the Strife Delievery Service and so Cloud would be delievering him to Banora. Cloud relucantly agrees and takes him to the deserted land with Marlene along for the ride *she didn't want Angeal's son to go  alone with just Cloud* .

They reach Banora and walk the lands where the town once was. However during the night as they camped out, the young man silently slips away to look around on his own and discovers Banora Underground. Curious about the entire place, the man walks through the caverns and eventually collides into none other than Genesis Rhapsodos.

Genesis has been hiding out in Banora ever since his awakening in Midgar after the events of Dirge of Cerebrus. At first Genesis believed it was his childhood friend back from the dead but after a short mock battle and stammerings from the younger man did Genesis finally believe the man's story. The man explains to Genesis why he came to Banora in search of the answers to the questions he had about his father and is more than ectatic to find out that Genesis was his father's childhood friend and almost brother.

The pair return to the surface world and back to camp to find Cloud about to set off in search of the young Hewley. Genesis recalls Cloud from the ending of Crisis Core while Cloud denies remembering anything, but knows about the part Genesis played in the downfall of Sephiroth and does not trust him in the slightest. He was right. Genesis quickly convinces the young Hewley to break into the old Shinra building and find his father's files claiming that he'd mentor the young man in mastering the Buster Sword fighting style like his father. Genesis however fond he is of Angeal's son, his real plan is revive his Angeal and because of the Jenova cells in the young man's genetics, bring back Sephiroth as well.


*I haven't thought much about what's left of the story to be written but imagine a few month gap*

Sephiroth is revived by Genesis and immediately clashes with his former comrade. Angeal's son, not wanting to see the death of his only connection he has to his father quickly steps in and blocks both Sephiroth's and Genesis's attacks. Exactly like his father did in the Junon simulation when Genesis's degradation first began causing Sephiroth to believe that the man is Angeal until Genesis proves otherwise.

Meanwhile Cloud and Co. *I have no idea who else would be helping just yet* are looking over the files the young man has stolen and discover that the man they were helping was an Angeal clone or copy. Sort of. The young man had the exact appearence of Angeal Hewley with tiny insignificant things that set them apart. He was created from Angeal's DNA and mixed with Jenova cells. Therefore becoming a clone and in his own right, Angeal's son as well.

That's all I've got right now. I mean that everything I've pictured so far...I never plan ahead too far or beginning to end. It kills the rush of typing in the moment. So as far as song names I have Crashed by Daughtry and Son of Man by Phil Collins. I picked these two because the lyrics sort of fit with the storyline, but don't give away too much...sorta. Here are the lyrics.

Crashed by Daughtry- [link]

Well I was movin at the speed of sound
Head spinnin couldn't find my way around, and
Didn't know that I was goin' down Yeahh, Yeahh
Where I been, well its all a blurr
What I was lookin' for, I'm not sure
Too late and didn't see it coming Yeahh,
Yeahh

Then I crashed into you
and I went up in flames
Could've been the death of me
But then you breathed your breath in me
Then I crashed into you
like a runaway train
You will consume me
But, I can't walk away

Some how I couldn't stop myself
Just wanted to know how it felt
Too strong I couldn't hold on Yeahh, Yeahh
Now I'm just tryin to make some sense
Out of how and why this happened
Where were headed, there's just no knowin Yeahh, Yeahh

And then I crashed into you
and I went up in flames

Could've been the death of me
But then you breathed your breath in me
Then I crashed into you
like a runaway train
You will consume me
But, I can't walk away

From your face, your eyes
are burning into me
You saved me, you gave me
Just what I need
ohh, just what I need

And then I crashed into you
and I went up in flames
Could've been the death of me
But then you breathed your breath in me
Then I crashed into you
like a runaway train
You will consume me
But, I can't walk away

Then I crashed into you (x5)
Like a runaway train
You will consume me
But I can't walk away

********************************************************************

I liked this because ' I crashed into you' would kinda be the young man meeting Genesis at random. 'You will consume me. but I can't walk away' fits because the man has a feeling that Genesis is hiding something but never the less stays because he wants to know more about his father. 'Somehow I couldn't stop myself....wanted to know how it felt.' He wanted to know his father and take up his legacy of the Buster Sword and somehow *this just came to mind like a second ago* winded up fighting against Cloud and Co.

Son of Man by Phil Collins-  [link]

Oh, the power to be strong
And the wisdom to be wise
All these things will
come to you in time
On this journey that you're making
There'll be answers that you'll seek
And it's you who'll climb the mountain
It's you who'll reach the peak

Son of Man, look to the sky
Lift your spirit, set it free
Some day you'll walk tall with pride
Son of Man, a man in time you'll be

Though there's no one there to guide you
No one to take your hand
But with faith and understanding
You will journey from boy to man

Son of Man, look to the sky
Lift your spirit, set it free
Some day you'll walk tall with pride
Son of Man, a man in time you'll be

In learning you will teach
And in teaching you will learn
You'll find your place beside the
ones you love
Oh, and all the things you dreamed of
The visions that you saw
Well, the time is drawing near now
It's yours to claim in all

Son of Man, look to the sky
Lift your spirit, set it free
Some day you'll walk tall with pride
Son of Man, a man in time you'll be

Son of Man,
Son of Man's a man for all to see

*****************************************************************
And…well this song does sorta give the story away too, but I also love this song and how it meshes perfectly.    Son of man, look to the sky   Since Angeal kinda has wings and I've always imaged the Lifestream coursing through and above the planet.   Though there's no one to guide you….you will journey to boy to man Since he grew up without parents or a childhood really.   Someday you'll walk tall with pride which was everything Angeal stood for. Honor. Dreams. Having pride in yourself.

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

So if you can come up with any names or at least tell me if you think I should keep Crashed or use Son of Man as a title instead! And one more favor? I have no idea what to name Angeal's son!!!

Angeal- his angelic views and wing.
Genesis- means beginning and he was the beginning of everything.
Sephiroth- taken from the Seraphim, a seven winged angel.

Zack Fair-because he always had a sunny attitude and was fair weathered.

Tifa Lockheart- She locked her heart away so she could help Cloud as his friend instead of crush.

Marlene- another distant form of beloved, like how Barret loves Marlene as his little girl.

Cloud Strife-……well his name didn't make sense except for the Strife part. He's certainly gone through strife.

So any helpful ideas for the story, a title and a name!? Oh and would you write the story for me? LOL! Jokin! Jokin! Signing out!
